Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 bottle red wine
  • 0.25 cup brandy
  • 3 cinnamon sticks
  • 4 whole cloves
  • 1 orange sliced
  • 3 tbsp honey

Method
 

  1. Pour the red wine and brandy into a large pot.
  2. Add the cinnamon sticks, cloves, and orange slices.
  3. Stir in the honey.
  4. Warm gently over low heat for about 20 minutes, never letting it boil.
  5. Ladle into mugs, straining out the spices, and garnish with an orange slice.

Notes

Keep it on low; boiling cooks off the alcohol and the flavor.
